A bit scary fraction to compare. The more a question is scary and looks complicated, the more there is a shortcut to get the answer.
At a closer look , the question is in somehow with cross values.
If we jot down the two fractions we can reasonably thinking that at the end it looks like this:
\(\frac{6833}{1008}\)
VS
\(\frac{1008}{6833}\)
Clearly, the first quantity is greater. A is the answer.
By the way: when you post a question there is above the same, a tag to insert and obtain the question as it is.
